Description
A still red from the heart of Tuscany, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, 14.5% ABV, produced by Casanova di Neri. 2020 vintage, 0.75L bottle. A Brunello that embodies the passion and dedication of the Neri family, founded in 1971. The Sangiovese grapes, hand-harvested in September, are vinified with a 29-day maceration in truncated cone-shaped wooden vats, with 20% whole bunches. Aged for 30 months in barrel and 18 months in bottle. On the nose, it is a symphony of young red fruits: blueberries, cherries, and plums, with blood orange notes emerging after some time in the glass. A bright, brilliant red color. On the palate, the tannins are very fine, creamy, and expansive, with a deep, persistent finish. A perfect wine to accompany red meat dishes, game, or aged cheeses.
